BZZT, wrong. This kind of thinking leads to having to upgrade every few
years just to have it not be any faster (but more features!). Moore's
law is NEVER a valid excuse to do things in a sub-optimal way just
because you don't have time to do it right.
That kind of attitude is why gnome-terminal on a modern machine is
sluggish compared to xterm on a P200.
